20 WMATA buses are driving around DC telling the city to show some love!  For the month of June, snap a picture of one of the ads and send it to showmelove@gmail.com and you will be entered into a weekly drawing for a limited edition, hand screened, Show Me Love DC! t-shirt or tote bag.  The first winner will be announced at the Show Me Love DC! launch party at Pulp on June 11th and subsequent winners will be selected on June 18th and June 25th.

Submitted photos may be displayed in an album on our Facebook page.  The bus ad art is also available for download.

In your email, please let us know your mailing address and if you prefer a t-shirt (and what size) or a tote.  Because there are only a limited number of shirts, we cannot assure that we’ll have your size.  If we don’t, we’ll send you a bag instead.

By sending us your photograph, you give us the right to use it on our website, Facebook, Twitter etc.  We will credit it with your name, if you want us to (just let us know in the email).

Thanks for helping spread the word and share the love!
